You need to work a little on part placement. You seem to have recoloring down pretty well, but remember to stay consistent with shading. just because you're using a different color or part there doesn't mean it doesn't need to be shaded anymore . Also you need to work on scratch parts. I'm going to suppose that the bottom of the swirl on Igglywag is handmade because of how scratchy it is. Here is a nice guide. Hope that helps, I'm always kind of excited to actually just look and see how much someone has improved. (:

This one isn't my favorite because of some problems with the front ear and shading, and it's not exactly the right size for a sprite...Idea came from the term Skitty on Wailord somewhere on the internet. It seems kind of weird to me because: <lame excuse>This was done late at night and I'm running out of ideas and so on and so forth</lame excuse> ... not the best I have done. Seedgey is #1 on my list so far.

I think that's better than the previous ones. I don't really know much about sprite-making, but it looks way better than your first creations.Good job! Only if I could make one myself... *sniffle sniffle* Where do you get the things for making sprites?

You can get the sprites from the psydex or from other pokemon sites. There are some good spriting guides (check M_B's link above) and you can edit your images on iaza.com. If you ever make your own sprites, I'd be happy to see them.

Sometimes, a spriter can appear bad if the Pokemon they fuse aren't very compatable. Thundawave, I thought that you weren't very good at this untill I saw Manchou. Maybe you just haven't developed a 'spriters instinct' for compatable Pokemon yet.

Since my birthday last year, the site hasn't updated at all, and people have been slowly trickling away from the forums over the weeks. I've had this site as my internet homepage for ages, and I anxiously awaited the resurgence that I hoped would come. But it never came. So, it is with a heavy heart that I announce my permanent leave of Psypoke. As a moderator, I wished only the best for everyone here, and worked to maintain a jolly environment where everyone could discuss cartoon monsters in peace. Now, I wish all those who happen to be reading this message good luck in whatever endeavors you have chosen to pursue, and that your futures be bright.

for this, i usually go with whatever has similarities between the sprites (other than color, as that's easy to change). basically, i usually look for pokemon in similar poses, or have similar body parts (flames, trees/plants, etc.). which is why it always mkes me mad when i get stupid requests like wailord+luvdisc+sudowoodo (that sprite sucked ass, btw). but doing stuff like that is good practice as well, a lot of the time.

Here are some more.Before the advice about compatible pokemon, I made this using a random sprite generator to get the combination:This is Bonsmeargle. I know it sucks. It doesn't deserve to become transparent.

Now after the advice:Munchodile! Munchlax and Totodile. They seem to work well when fused together.

eh, its a decent fusion (the totodile/munchlax one) but I don't know if they're exactly compatible. It's strange, my very first sprites were some of my best spriting. Sceptales, and Floatshroom. Those 2 were some of my first, and out of all my sprites the best. I've lost my creativity, and sense of compatibility. I want to get back into spriting but i've lost my sense of how things should go together.
